Members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Polytechnics, SSANIP, and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, NASUP, of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, have embarked on an indefinite strike over the non-implementation of the new national minimum wage.
The unions began the industrial action after a joint congress.
As of the time of filing this report, students were seen milling around at the main entrance of the institution with the hope that the school’s gate would be opened.
The Chairman, Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Polytechnics, The Polytechnic, Ibadan Chapter, Mr Biodun Abegunde, told newsmen that the unions had no option than to embark on strike as their demands need urgent attention.
Mr Abegunde also said that the unions were equally demanding the removal of a consultant in charge of the school finances in order to ensure financial autonomy for the institution.
